(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm, 24 May 2025) Pale golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, grass and peaches. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of peaches, citrus, orange, grass and a mild floral/citric bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Refreshing and highly drinkable. Nice one.

Stråfarget. Nesten klar. Lavt tett skum. Stabilt. Beskjeden sitrusaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken tørket frukt. Tørr bitter avslutning.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo. Cheers! Aroma of pine, grass and citrus. Not a lot of citrus on the taste. Quite watery, quite herby but not really a lot to it. Very drinkable though.

Cask at George, Sandbach. Pours a very pale straw with a minimal scummy almost white head and good lacing. Aroma is mainly floral hops. In the mouth it fluctuates between sweet and slightly sharp with flavours of citrus, lemon, kiwi and melon. Later on hints of nuts and spice as well. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. Not really my favourite sort of beer, but this is quite decent. Nice and refreshing but with a tang to it.

Clear light straw with a tight creamy white head and soft, light malt on the nose. Light bodied, slightly grainy, with biscuit malt up front, a twist of citrus coming through and a dry, slightly hoppy finish

Cask at brewery taproom, Leeds. Pale yellow colour and small white head. Grassy, malty aroma. Light-bodied. Citrusy hops and grass in the pale malty flavour. Easy.
